The Fillmore 2020 Civic Pride Committee is once again planning for a beautiful Flower Show. The dates for the 2016 Fillmore Flower Show are April 9th and 10th at the Active Adult Center, 533 Santa Clara Street in Fillmore. The theme for this year is “Fillmore in Bloom”. While only Fillmore residents may enter, the public is encouraged to attend. Public viewing is 1-4 pm on Saturday and Sunday.

See the Fillmore Flower Show website for more details. Mr. Bob Crum has a lovely youtube slideshow of the flower show. Both of these places will give you an idea of the beauty of “Fillmore in Bloom”.

Every year local gardeners bring many beautiful roses, iris, other single stem cut flowers, bouquets and arrangements (including the very popular miniature arrangements and bouquets), potted plants and dish gardens to display at the flower show. In addition, there are youth flower arrangements and a youth composition competition.

The Fillmore Flower Show is not only a long-standing tradition, it is also a thoroughly fun event. Whether you would be a first time entrant or have been participating in the flower show for decades, plan to bring something from your garden on April 9, 2016.
